Overview: The Door is an unparalleled model for youth development, offering a comprehensive range of integrated services within a single site for nearly 11,000 New York City youth each year. Our mission is to empower young adults to reach their full potential by providing comprehensive youth development services in a diverse and caring environment. At The Door, youth can access health care and education, mental health counseling and crisis assistance, legal assistance, college preparation services, career development, housing supports, arts, sports and recreational activities, and nutritious meals - all for free and under one roof. By providing participants with our suite of integrated services, we seek to provide any motivated young person with the tools, resources, and opportunities needed to successfully transition to adulthood. The Door operates two Supportive Housing sites, East 9th Street(The Foyer) and The Lee, providing social service supports for the young adults that reside in the Supportive Housing Programs, located in the Lower East Side and Alphabet City. The Door's Supportive Housing program ideally serves young adults aged 18 - 26, some residents range in upper 20's to mid-30's, who are experiencing homelessness and may struggle with managing mental illness and substance use. Some clients may also be aging out of foster care or may have young children of their own. The goal of supportive housing at The Door is to support the residents in maintaining permanent housing, maintaining ADL's, developing appropriate coping skills, and working towards greater independence. The 9th Street/Foyer consists of 28 individual (studio) and 12 (1 bedroom) units. In contrast, the Lee consists of 55 units: studios and shared suite.
